Ever since I can remember, Paola has always had a strong love for animals of all sorts. I would catch her petting random dogs on the streets and falling in love with hamsters through a pet store window glass. Her undying love and compassion for creatures has assisted her in becoming an amazing pet-mother. When she got her first pet hamster, you could tell she was very involved. She would teach her tricks along with discipline tactics, yet also strongly incorporated time into loving her and showing her constant affection. Then later on, she got her first puppy. I have never not seen her avoid her dog's needs and even wants. She always puts time and effort into feeding her nutritious foods, walking her and making sure she's getting enough exercise, and even having fun and showing her dog care. To this day, she continues to impress many with her structured ways of animal-parenting and adoration. She is someone I look up to in the sense of knowing how to care for other beings just as much as you would your own children.
